Haiku Checker

A bunch of my friends and I have started writing haikus at work to pass the time, and posting them to my friend Lesley's Live Journal. I was curious to see if I could write a Haiku Checker. A simple program that checks all of the syllables against dictionary.com and tells you if in fact what you wrote is a haiku (17 syllables). Here is my first beta. It currently is just a command line tool, and does not accept any punctuation and is wrong sometimes. However, it is getting there, and I figured I should share it. Haiku Checker Beta Source
